Why participate FACHPACK?
FACHPACK is a European hub where you can see the entire packaging landscape in one walking route: materials → design → machines → print/label → inspection → logistics. Brands and converters compare barrier strategies, sealable mono-materials and bio-based alternatives, while engineers on the line look at cycle times, uptime and OEE. Print & labeling is all about short runs, mass customization and smart coding for traceability and product safety.
The sustainability focus is concrete: from eco-design and recyclate use to LCA benchmarks and return/reuse systems. Teams test regulatory impact (e.g. around packaging and product passports) and translate this into packaging architecture, data flows and supplier agreements. In intralogistics, you will test right-sizing, automatic packaging, vision inspection, AMR/AGV and WMS/ERP links to reduce costs, damage and emissions.
The internships will unravel cases: TCO calculations for material changes, line integration (machine/brand agnostic), AI inspection without long training sets, safety & food contact, cold-chain integrity, anti-counterfeit and retail/e-commerce requirements (frustration-free, letterbox, returns). Matchmaking and solution sprints translate ideas into pilot design with clear KPIs (cost per pack, CO₂/pack, claims reduction, first-time-right, throughput).
In short: FACHPACK is where circular ambitions and operational reality come together. You’ll leave with validated material and machine choices, an implementation plan for line upgrade or new packaging, and partners who help scale—from concept to scalable, compliant, and cost-effective packaging.
